Abstract
Since the beginning of the epidemic, HIV associations have played an essential role in both northern and southern countries. In France, they have enabled people living with HIV, and more broadly exposed populations, to acquire a role as interlocutors in public debate, in public health strategies and in research orientations. They have also brought about a profound change in the relationship between people living with HIV and the healthcare system. In Burkina Faso, associations play an important role in the national response to infection; their actions, which were once confined to information, awareness-raising and psychosocial support, have gradually evolved towards an increasingly comprehensive service offering (screening, prevention, treatment and follow-up) in line with the epidemic.
